Capturing species-wide diversity of the gut microbiota and its relationship with genomic variation in the critically endangered kākāpō

2022-11-01

Abstract excerpt

The gut microbiota plays an essential role in host health that has important implications for the conservation management of threatened wildlife. While factors such as diet, medication, and habitat are known to shape the microbiota, our understanding of the entirety of factors, including the complex role of the host genomic background, remains incomplete. Our research on the gut microbiota of the critically endang...
